Before Roof cleaning

What some Contractors don’t want you to know about the stains on your roof:

After Roof cleaning

Your roofing granules ARE NOT falling off. Unsightly black stains or streaks on asphalt shingles are caused by a hardy type of algae called Gloeocapsa Magma. The algae feeds on the crushed limestone that is used in modern asphalt shingles. Precipitation spreads the algae growth down the roof causing the black streaks.

50% of Roofs Are Replaced Due To The Way They Look!

If you are thinking about replacing your roof, or know of someone who is, make sure the roof actually needs replacing. The residents of this home mistakenly thought they needed a new roof and were astounded to hear it only needed to be cleaned, saving them thousands and thousands of dollars. Replacing your roof because of this algae is like replacing your siding instead of having it cleaned; it just doesn’t make sense.

Roof Cleaning Is Recommended By Shingle Manufacturers.

Companies like Owens Corning and GAF, and also the Asphalt Roofing Manufacturers Association recommend a low pressure chemical application followed by a low pressure rinse. We use the cleaners and methods recommended by these companies, for a safe and damage free roof cleaning.
